Five years of garrison on the border, shocked Zhu Yuanzhang who went south to inspect

Spread out

Seeing Zhu Yuanzhang being so tough, Tang He also let out a long sigh, "My daughter, what should I do?"
He walked into Duke Xin's mansion dejectedly. Seeing his appearance, his wife couldn't help but ask: "Did the emperor scold you today? Why do you look so sad?"

Tang He sighed, slumped down on his recliner, and said feebly: "I think this emperor is here to make the decision for me."

"Speaking of matchmaker, that's really great!"

"What a fart, my Xin'er wants Prince Su to marry Xin'er!"

"King Su, who are you?"

"Eighteen princes, eighteen princes."

"Who is it, Zhu Tuo?"

"Three years ago, he was demoted to Lingnan. How could I know him?"

"South?" Tang He, we only have such a precious daughter, don't let her die! "

"Lu Qing, Shi Ziliang, mobilize your troops and generals, let's go!" Zhu Tuo took a sip, wiped his mouth, and said loudly.

The leader stood up quickly and was about to persuade Zhu Tuo again, but Zhu Tuo said to him seriously: "I treat you all as brothers. Now that I am being bullied, how can I not take revenge as a man?"

"When I catch the king who insulted you, I must chop off his head and use it as a chamber pot!"

After speaking, Zhu Tuo led the army and left.

Liang Liang, a scholar next to Zhu Tuo, was startled and asked: "Your Majesty, those are barbarians, why should we help them? They are not worth recruiting."

"What do you know?" Zhu Tuo said: "There are only [-]% Han people left in Lingnan. Without them, what does my position as king mean? And if you are not sincere, will they treat you sincerely?"

"Your Majesty said it very well."

Lu Qing said worriedly: "Your Majesty, Annan is now the Chen dynasty and has formed an alliance with our Ming Dynasty, and the emperor has listed Annan as a place not to fight. If you do this, will it damage the friendship between us? ?"

"Annan has the qualifications!" Zhu Tuo sighed and shouted: "I have no intention of killing the Chen family, but there is a country bumpkin who is domineering on the border. I will act on behalf of heaven! If the Chen family dynasty If you are wise, hand over your territory, otherwise, I will personally send troops!"

Lu Qing shook his head, "Your Majesty, even 3 of us may not be able to defeat a chieftain."

Zhu Tuo shouted: "Every one of my men is worth one hundred, 3 people is 30 people, isn't it easy for 30 people to defeat the native emperor of Annan?
"bring it on."

"Don't forget, I have studied military affairs since I was a child. I went to the battlefield in 14 and killed An Bangyan. Now I have 30 troops, but I can't deal with a mere bandit?"

"But the king's account cannot be settled like this.
"What's so good about this? Besides, we are different from the barbarians in the southwest. We have a strategy. As long as the strategy is correct, we can easily defeat the barbarians even if they are ten times or a hundred times stronger!"

When Zhu Tuo said this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Qing was not very afraid. Anyway, even if he was defeated, the mountains and forests were lush and there was still no problem in escaping.

He was most concerned about Zhu Tuo's safety and reminded him: "Your Majesty, on the battlefield, you still need to command from the rear. Don't rush in."

"I'm not a three-year-old child, how could I do such a stupid thing?" Zhu Tuo looked sideways at Lu.

"green."

On the border between Annan and Jiaozhi, there was a chieftain of the Li family. This chieftain relied on the Chen Dynasty of Annan to dominate the market here. He often robbed the Han people of the Ming Dynasty and bullied the nearby squires, which caused a lot of resentment among the people.

Because Li's chieftain was related to the Annan Chen Dynasty, the Annan Dynasty also acquiesced in Li's behavior.

After all, all the things that were robbed belonged to the Ming Dynasty. What does it have to do with the Annan Dynasty?

When the Ming army attacked, Li's chieftains would immediately retreat into Annan, and when the matter subsided, they would appear openly and suppress the local snakes around them.

As a result, Li's chieftain power became stronger and stronger, and even imitated the system of the Ming Dynasty and set up officials and soldiers among each chieftain.Zhu Tuo's target this time was Li's toast.

"Come on!" he yelled.

Zhu Tuo led the way, and the three thousand soldiers and horses behind him also roared away with him.

Lu Qing: "..."

Zhu Tuo's voice still echoed in his mind: "We have to use strategy."

Is this his strategy?

The three thousand soldiers and horses led by Zhu Tuo pushed all the way in front of a small group of Li's soldiers, defeating the army.

The morale of the soldiers was high, they shouted in unison, and followed Zhu Tuo, fighting their way out.

Liang Wu, a Taiwei scholar, was very good at martial arts. He swung a machete and was chopped down to the ground without even touching the opponent's long sword.

Due to the sudden encounter, the enemy had no time to respond or make any preparations. After one round of attack, the enemy was torn apart and there was chaos in all directions.

Shi Ziliang threw some people in front of Zhu Tuo and said with a smile: "Let them go and let them inform the leader of the Li family that I, the Ming Dynasty, have come to take revenge!"

When the captives came back, Li's chieftains were all shocked, but when they heard that the other party only had 3000 people, he gained confidence.

Their leader, Li Shoudu, almost fled to Annan when he heard that the Ming army was invading. However, he was relieved when he heard that the Ming army only numbered three thousand.

It was angry again, and it was laughing wildly again.

His body immediately stiffened.

Even if they dare to cause trouble for themselves, it's like hitting an egg with a stone.

If he could personally defeat the Ming army and hand it over to the Annan Dynasty, His Majesty Annan would definitely look at him differently.

Li Shoudu was very careful and contacted some better places nearby and asked them to send people to support him.

The other chieftains also agreed, and they each sent their best warriors to join Li's chieftains. There were about 4 to [-] people, and they looked very impressive.

Li Shoudu took a look at the thousands of troops behind him and felt relieved.

3 people fight 3 people, and I have the upper hand!
However, he could not take it lightly and sent spies to check again. He found that since the victory of the last battle, the Ming army had become arrogant and lax in military regulations. Some soldiers felt that the heat was unbearable and simply took off their armor for a day. No more running five miles.

I have all the advantages, how can the Ming army compete with me?
Li Shoudu's confidence increased greatly, and he went to fight with high spirits. The people around him tried to persuade him. Some people thought it was a conspiracy of the Ming army, and some felt that there was no reason to provoke the Ming soldiers. If that didn't work, they should hide in the Annan area. The Ming army would have to leave sooner or later.

However, Li Shoudu's leader didn't think so.

An army of 30 men arrived, but he hid.

The Ming army is coming, and I still hide it?

In this case, it is better to play hide and seek every day. What is the point of being a leader?
Don't you want to be ridiculed?

He mobilized 3 elites from more than 3 people and set off in a mighty manner. It is said that he will send [-] people in order to defeat this Ming army.

This is his moment of fame!

Hearing the spies say that Li's chief chieftain was coming, Zhu Tuo calmed down a lot and waited leisurely for the enemy to appear.

He rested on a creek without setting up camp, allowing enemy spies to patrol nearby.
